* AttackOfThe50FootWhatever: Jimmy turns himself into a giant octopus to stop the other monsters.
* BilingualBonus:Sheen calls himself an “hombre lobo” aka a wolf man.
* {{Catchphrase}}: Carl asks if he can say Jimmy’s famous “To the lab!” line and messes it up horribly:

* EatTheCamera: When Vampire!Carl bites Cindy.
* FreezeFrameBonus: There appears to be a picture of Michael Jackson as an option on Jimmy’s monster machine.
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: While Hugh is reminiscing about his favorite monster movie, “Octopus Man,” Carl trips while going up the stairs to Jimmy’s room.
* GoneHorriblyRight: Jimmy’s Neutronic Monster Maker works really well, so well that his friends not only get the appearances of the monsters but the abilities as well.
* HalloweenEpisode
* TheIgor: Jimmy acts like this with his back hunched and a creepy look on his face while using his monster maker.
* ImpendingDoomPOV: We see from Sheen’s red-tinged perspective as he hunts Libby.
* LaymansTerms: This exchange between Jimmy and Sheen:
-->'''Jimmy:''' ''The monster maker must have mutated Carl’s molecular structure on the subatomic level, altering his DNA.''

-->'''Jimmy:''' ''He’s a real vampire!''

* ScaryFlashlightFace: The boys do this while trying to figure out what to wear for Halloween.
* SeverelySpecializedStore: Good thing “Lucky Tony’s House of Garlic,” right across the street from “House of Blue Pants,” was still open because VampiresHateGarlic and Jimmy was able to escape Carl and Cindy.
** Jimmy is saved in a similar fashion from Sheen and Libby by “Hi Ho Silver Store.”
* ShoutOut:
** The title card's font is the same as the logo of ''[[Film/ANightmareOnElmStreetPart2FreddysRevenge A Nightmare On Elm Street Part 2: Freddy's Revenge]]''.
** Sheen references Gene Wilder's character from ''[[Film/YoungFrankenstein Young Frankenstein]]'' (pronouncing Frankenstein as "Fronkensteen").
** Miss Fowl recites lines from the 1941 movie ''[[Film/TheWolfMan1941 The Wolf Man]]'' - "Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolf-bane blooms and the autumn moon is bright."
** Cindy goes as “[[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Muffy the Vampire Annihilator]]” for Halloween.
* TooOldToTrickOrTreat: Jimmy thinks trick-or-treating is childish, but he still wants the free candy so he makes a deal with Sheen and Carl that he’ll turn them into scary monsters in exchange for some of their candy.
